I would like to thank Mr. McClatchey for helping keep the Pirates in Pittsburgh.  I don't know what anyone else or myself would have done if the Pirates would have left Pittsburgh.

I don't make it to many Pirates games, because I'm four hours away from Pittsburgh, but I'd love to make it to more home games.  I do manage to follow the Pirates to the best of my abilities.  I have FOX Sports Pittsburgh, so therefore, I am able to watch most of the Pirates games that are broadcast.

When word came that the Pirates may have a possible buyer, that made my day.  I was very excited when I heard this.

The buyer was Mr. McClatchey.

Thanks.
